A Progressive Race P The papers formerly known as The Statesman and The Independent, have been merged into The Denver Star Departed Odd Fellows and Real Men Memoralized Oft in the stilly night, ere slumber's found me, Fond memory brings the light of other days around me. The smiles, the tears of boyhood years, the words of love then spoken; the eyes that shone now dimmed and gone. The cheerful hearts now broken Memory, life's time clock of events causes us to sit, revel in phantom pleasures and bygone joys of yesterday. Turn back with me, memory's scroll and there go to your autograph or picture album and begin to turn the pages of those whose faces and writings were once close and dear to you. As you turn the pages every picture you scan and with each there is a fond and pleasing surrounding and association that brings its each joy or sadness, as the case may suggest—yet with all of these conflicting emotions, memory sheds its soft silver light upon such feeling reminiscences of long, long ago. Thus when the memorial exercises at Bethlehem Baptist Church Sunday, memorizing the sweet memories of the departed Odd Fellows, Francis T. Bruce, of Rocky Mt. Lodge No 2320, Geo. D. Hall of Arapahoe Lodge 2936 and Dr. C. D. DeFrantz and Tom Kelton of Denver Lodge No. 8646, the audience was in a very receptive attitude to hear of the struggles, life ambitions, sorrows and success of their deceased brothers and friends. While quite 150 braved the biting cold and unpleasant weather to do honor to them and to keep fresh their obligations solemly taken at the sacred alter of friend ship; love and truth, eulogies upon the lives of the departed clearly proved them as well as Odd Fellows. Geo. S. Contee, M & V. P. was chairman and presiding officer, while the participants upon the program were Chas. S. Muse, P. S., Denver Lodge "Eulogy on Dr. C. D. DeFrahnz;' J. R. Hanger, P. N. F., Denver Lodge, "Thomas Kelton;" Henry Marks, P. G. M., Arapahoe Lodge "Geo. D. Hall" and Wm. G. Campbell, M. V. P., "Francis T. Bruce;" the music by Bethlehem's Baptist Church choir. Rev. Reynolds took part in the devotionals. Dr. Paul E. Spratlin ex-District Grand Master and Sister M. E. Riley, P. M. N. G. eulogized the memories of "Father Bruce, as a Ruthite" while Dr. Spratlin spoke most tenderly and profitably upon the lessons drawn from each of the lives of the departed brothers. The occasion was The Denver Star ESTABLISHED 1888 COLORED SAILOR LOOSES FOR OUR COUNTRY Robert Cray lost on Transport Finland Washington, Nov. 6-That a colored sailor lost his life on the torpedoed patrol boat, the Alcedo, was made public tonight. The Navy department issued this statement tonight: "The Navy department has been advised by Vice Admiral Sims that at 2:30 a. m., Nov. 5, the American patrol boat Alcedo, a converted yacht, was torpedoed and sunk by a German submarine in the war zone. "One officer and twenty men are missing. The ship sank in four minutes after being struck. "Several vessels we're searching for possible survivors at the time the report was made. The Alcedo carried a crew of seven officers and eighty-five men." Even now let not one scintilla of disloyalty and treachery be even hinted at or impugned against the Negro but rather let him be offered up as martyrs and heroes to protect and defend the law, liberty, equality and democracy of the South which in public squares, on Sundays and week days burns Negroes and causes men to so lose control of their manly and racial instincts that they, in an attempt to correct a wrong, commit grave mistakes. Some men die to make men holy while some die to make men free. Some prefer death when liberty and equality and Justice is denied. Some love their race, their women so well that they are willing to die in Texas for them instead of France. God bless and have mercy upon our soldier boys. Not even the decency of being shot, so great did our boys destroy the Texas Justice and democracy!! Bodies of the 13 men were hung but their singing spirits were left untarnished. Man's extremity was God's opportunity. To make world safe for democracy ought to include making South safe for the Negro, especially the Negro soldier. Among the missing are Robert M. C. Cray, born in Charleston, South Carolina, and living at times in New York. When the homeward bound American transport Finland was hit by a U-boat torpedo nine men lost their lives, according to a casualty list reaching the War and Navy Departments from Vice Admiral Sims Among the hero dead was Chas. H. Maxwell, colored, of the transport workers' batallion. You heard in Mississippi only recently how Second Lieut. Sanders O. R. C. was mobbed in Vicksburg, Miss. with these words, "Take off that uniform, no Nigger can wear a uniform in Mississippi that white people have to honor." You have already heard how our woman was pulled out into the streets by a big burly ignorant red neck policeman mistreated, abused and pleading for common ordinary modesty and decency to be permitted to hide her body (her only covering then being her underwear and apron). A policeman—soldier who saw this woman struggling with the policeman, asked about the trouble and received a smashed head and was forced to run for his life and was either shot or shot at and later arrested and lodged in jail. The Soldiers hearing of their comrade's treatment, thinking of the terrible harass, daily insults under the most exasperating circumstanees which the United States Army officials and the government were unable to stop, limit or even discourage—things which try real men and soldiers nerve, took up arms against a sea of troubles and while under the hypnotic and mistaken idea of righting our wrongs by force, took their guns and killed 17 people. These misguided men were wrong and when it came time to pay the bloodiest penalty to be paid, with erected heads, straight and proud, as they sang their souls into an eternity before a Just God before whom some of these army officials, policemen, lynchers and citizens of a world wide democracy will have to stand in judgement. Sang and with soldier-like bearing, firm step, with no show of bravado or fear, malice toward none and charity for those who condemned these men and heroes died for their race's womanhood and manhood protesting with shot and shell and paying, like John Brown with their lives. To fight for liberty, equality and democracy of Negroes in Texas and then die was just the same to them as to fight for that same liberty, equality and democracy of the Anglo-Saxon in France or Belgium. They knew, thought and believed America needed what she was going abroad to fight for right in Texas and they willingly, manfully and with a song on their lips paid the penalty. To the 41 who were given life sentences, we can only say 'Stonewalls do not a prison make, nor iron bars a cage, Minds innocent quiet take that for a hermitage.' Negroes of America have overlooked your misguidings and mistakes and like John Brown, see only the great cause which moved you. Young Negro American knows as you know that more innocent Negroes have shed their blood under the present democratic administration of justice and democracy The sinking of the Finland is the most serious blow suffered by this country since its entrance into the war. Maxwell's emergency address is given as No.278, Concord, North Carolina, Protecting Wyoming Democracy Lynchers Hang Negro Rock Springs, Wyo., Dec. 12.—An unidentified Negro, charged with molnesting women residents of Blairtown, a suburb, was taken from the city jail early today and hanged to a railroad bridge north of Rock Springs. His body was found this afternoon. Twenty-five citizens were in the crowd that overpowered the jailer at the city prison to secure the Negro. a great event and served to bring to mind what true faith fulness and duty really spells in an active life. The orphan's and widow's vow was taken by some present which left an everlasting impression upon the mind and hearts of the men. It was sad to note the many absentees of the Ruthites of 4130 and members of the other lodges. The song "Blest be the Tie that Binds" sealed the eulogies, "Peace be Unto Their Ashes" and "God be with You'till we Meet Again. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, DEC. 15, 1917 United States Army Hang's 13 "GOOD BYE BOYS" AND WITHOUT FEAR OR BRAVADO MEET DEATH "Good bye Boys," and without fear or bravado etem death. We are in a war up to our necks, without and within United States. We must be careful, wise, patient and reticent in this hour of trial and experience thru which our race is emerging from the grasse of the proud Christian American fiery furnace of hate, justice equality and world wide democracy. We have passed and are passing thru plots, mob violence, riots and things most galling and nerve racking already and have yet retained our control. than has been shed under any other administration yet. Recall East St. Louis, Memphis Waco and Houston and note the staggering blows to try and intimidate, coerce or discourage the Negroes. But with these have come decision in grand father clause case, Lou isville segregation case and the establishment of the officers military training school. Catch that same John Brown spirit of the martyred 13; the time is here and now when one must be able to discriminate, look deeply beyond the surface of things. Who knows what this lesson of providence trial of faith, testing of courage is not God's way to carry out His plan. Look at the signs that tell. Negro poets with your blank and poetic versge; Negro Artist with paint and brush, Negro dramatist with measured action and genteel grace Negroes all into whose viens run the proud and historic blood of Negro loyalty, love of mankind and fellowman, "catch that 'Good bye, Boys of Co. C.' spirit", write it upon the house tops, tell it to our young, place the names of these men with an inscribed border of mourning and tell them how nobly they died for Texas democracy and fair play. Tell them only such a 'good bye' can come from honest hearts and pure and unsel fish minds. The world is in a period of transition. Nearly every nation is in conflict. War and destruction are shaking the very foundations of America and the world and nothing seems permanent. But there is one stable and unalterable thing and that is truth. It is quite evident that the time has come for a new race and a new earth. That time is at hand and war will soon die of its own destructive force. Then love shall fill the hearts of all men who tread the face of this earth. But men must be shown the way to lay hold of the constructive power of love, (Good bye Boys of Co. C) and it is the duty of every Negro to help every person into that light, Negroes dont hate. So long as man has not the loqe of his fellowmen in his FIVE CENTS A COPY. BOY SCOUTS SWEAR IN SUNDAY AT SHORTER Boys Urged to Be Present at Seven O'clock On Sunday evening Dec. 16 at Shorter Church a troop of Boy Scouts will be mustered into the parent organization. Sometime ago several business men of Denver decided that it would be beneficial to the colored boy to have him become a scout. They interested them selves to the extent of securing some of our young men to act as Scout Masters and train the boys. After several months of preparations these boys are now ready to be sworn into the real organization. This is the only colored troop in this part of the country and it is left with the old er people now to back these boys and encourage them in every undertaking. In the Scout work discipline is the predominating feature. All boys must pass a practical examination before he can be come a Scout and to retain his membership he must always conduct himself in a gentlemanly manner, and lend assistance whenever it is need ed in both public and private. Rev. Williams has decided to make a young people's evening out of the affair. Every body is cordially invited, service begins 7:30 sharp. Negroes Prove Loyalty Not a single pro-German Negro has, up to this writing, been found in the United States. To a man they are for Uncle Sam and the United States first, last and all the time. It is not saying too much, perhaps, to state that every Negro in Calcasieu and other parishes in this section between the ages of 21 and 31 years wanted to go to war. With them the claims for exemptions were few and far between. Five times more than the quota required reported and crowded the places for enlistment, until they had to be turned away. It is a record that will go down in history—one of which any nation might well be proud.—Lake Chas, American Press (La.) Washington, D.

Many housewives who have but two or three in family hesitate to buy chicken except when entertaining as it lasts so long. With an ice chest one small chicken will serve three or four meals for two, not giving very large servings to be sure, but plenty enough to satisfy a appetite. The second joint is a good serving if grown on a normally active chicken and with a good helping of mashed potato, plenty of good gravy and another vegetable will make a good main dish even for the hearty man. The drum sticks may be boned, stuffed and used as another meal, the wings, neck and back as a stew with biscuits and gravy and there will still be enough bits to combine with apple, celery, and a few nuts to make a most sustaining salad for lunch.

Apples are our common fruit, but may be prepared in countless ways for the table. Apple Jam—Pare, core and chop a pound of apples, add a pound of sugar, a cupful of chopped raisins, a lemon juice and rind finely chopped. Apple Jam—Parc, core and chop a pound of apples, add a pound of sugar, a cupful of chopped raisins, a lemon juice and finely chopped, one cupful of chipped raisins, one orange, juice and rind, cook until clear and thick. Apple Delight—Two cupfuls of chopped apple cooked in a double boiler with two cupfuls of sugar, one orange, one lemon, the juice and finely chopped, one cupful of raisins. Cook one hour, then add a cupful of walnut meats five minutes before it is ready to pour into the glasses. Seal in jelly glasses. When drying apples, if they are dipped in a mild salt solution before putting to dry they will keep a lighter, better color. Apple Butter—Boll new cider until reduced one-half the day before it is to be used. To every four gallons of boiled cider allow a fourth of a bushel of juicy apples, pared, cored and quartered. Fill a large kettle with the cider and add as many apples as can be kept moist. Stir frequently and when the apples are soft heat with a spoon. Cook until dark brown. Have boiled cider to add if it becomes too thick and more apples if too thin. Twenty minutes before removing from the fire add cinnamon and nutmeg to taste. Keep in stone jars. Apple Catsup—Peel, core and quarter sour apples, stew as soft as possible in a very little water. Put through a sieve and to each quart add a teaspoonful each of pepper, cloves and mustard, two teaspoonfuls of cinnamon, two medium-sized onions chopped fine, a teaspoonful of salt and a pint of vinegar. Boll one hour, seal tightly. Apple and Quince-To every four pounds of apple add a pound of quince unpeeled and cut fine, then cooked with the apple just as for canned apples. Baked apples filled into sterilized cans and covered with hot sirup makes a most delicious canned apple for winter use.

Bishop Oscar Ehlarsen, who has been engaged in missionary work throughout the United States, arrived in Denver this week to establish a home for orphans and children workers, which, according to the present plan, will become the center of a movement. He has purchased the property at 2070 South Milwaukee Street, formerly occupied by the University Park postoffice, and will equip the place for the work as soon as he has sufficient funds. I wish to thank the many friends who so kindly assisted me during the long illness and death of my beloved mother, the late Sarah Crump, and also for the many beautiful floweral offerings received at the funeral services. May God bless one who was interested in mother. A workshop for the benefit of orphans and invalids is to be established under the auspices of the Life-Savior Apostolic Benevolent church, of which Bishop Oscar Einarsen is the founder. A piece of property has been purchased in University Park at 2070 South Milwaukee street for this purpose. Bishop Einarsen is endeavoring to interest the public in his cause, which has been pronounced worthy by the American Bank & Trust Company and others who have investigated it. He appeals for donations of money or useful articles. The founder of the movement, who was incapacitated for manual labor by an injury to the spine sustained early in life, has placed all of his savings in the fund for the purchase of the land and building. He states that all Life-Savior laborers will receive, so far as possible, necessities of life, but no money salary. Organized, 1896, Affiliated with National Council of Women 1900. State President of Colored Women's Clubs. My dear Co-Worker: NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF COLORED WOMEN I have good news for you. God is answering our prayers. I appeared before the Rules Committee of the House of Representatives, Friday, August 3rd, and that night Congressman Dyer phoned me that the Committee was wonderfully impressed and had decided to recommend that the Resolution, begging Federal Investigation be taken up by Congress. Now, we must win. God will help us if we help ourselves. Keep at it! WORK! PETTIONS! PETTIONS! PETTIONS are the things that will prove that there is countrywide sentiment and determination back of this demanding that an end be put to mob violence. Now, I will not rest until every Congressman is appealed to to take a stand for justice and protection. Will you get men to sign these Petitions in ink, and you divide the number and send them directly to the members of Congress from your State? Send them to men in the House and in the Senate. See that the work is neatly done so as to reflect the intelligence that there is back of this movement. Tell our people to take pride and pleasure in this. Get influential white friends to sign some of them. Give them the literature and urge them to see their patriotic duty in saving America from mob violence. Get signatures. Every Petition counts. Fill out the inclosed memorandum and send it at once, to me. This memorandum goes to Congressman Dyer. He wants to keep close tab on what is being done by the Colored people themselves. Send each Congressman one of the inclosed tags. Write a very short letter, telling him you know he is going to hear the voice of his fellow countryman, pleading for justice and protection. Make it bristle with patriotism, but make him feel that this country is facing a problem at home that is no less serious than the problem abroad. Work with us in this. Pray with us and we will win.

After two sleepless nights, during which all the latent superstition of his nature had come to the front, Harold Ashton decided that he would rid himself of his ill-omedained opal to the earliest possible moment. He had had nothing but ill luck since he owned the thing, the crowning piece being his quarrel with his fiancée, Marlon Hulbert. She had declared that the great gem in its unique setting was too showy an article of jewelry for a man of good taste to wear. He had thought differently, and the outcome had been his final dismissal. Yet how to dispose of the ring was something of a puzzle to the unimaginative Ashton. Finally he decided that the thing to do would be to lose it. But the simple and obvious methods of ridding himself of it, by casting it from a rapidly moving train, or hurling it into the ocean from the deck of a steamboat, never so much as entered his head. Later in the day Ashton dropped into his friend Jim Benton's office for a chat, and the sight of the trim-looking young woman, industriously pounding away upon the typewriting machine, put a new idea into his head. "Miss Brown," he asked, "have you time to address an envelope for me?" "Certally," replied Miss Brown, finishing the letter she was at work upon and inserting an envelope in her machine. Ashton walked over to her side and told her the address in a low tone. After thanking Miss Brown, Ashton hurried from the office, with the envelope safe in his pocket, and back to the seclusion of his own room, where he gave himself up to the pleasant task of packing the opal up preparatory to losing it. He did the ring up in a small box, upon which he pasted the address which he cut from the envelope. When Ashton had shoved his box through the slit labeled "parcels" at the post office, he felt more like himself than he had done for some time. The next morning, drawn by that irresistible influence which is supposed to draw murderers to the scenes of their former crimes, often to their own undoing. Ashton was sauntering past Packard's jewelry store, when one of the clerks hailed him with: "Mr. Packard wishes to see you a moment." With sinking heart Ashton meekly followed the clerk into the store. Mr. Packard looked at Ashton sharply through his spectacles, as he inquired: "This is your ring, isn't it?" Ashton's face grew very red under the keen scrutiny of the old man. "Yeah!" he stammered, pretending to examine the too-familiar ring which Mr. Packard held out to him. "I—I lost it." "Huh!" ejaculated the jeweler. "Looks more like theft. It came to us by mail. I knew in a minute it was yours, for we never made another one like it." and he pointed to the peculiar setting. At two o'clock that afternoon he made his way to the Shirley theater, where there was to be a popular-priced matinee for children. As he had expected, there was a large crowd collected before the entrance. Into this seething, pushing mass of humanity Ashton forced his way. It seemed an ideal place to lose anything, whether one wanted to or not. Early that evening, as he was smoking a lonely pipe, and congratulating himself upon the fact of his having at last lost his unlucky opal, the door was fung open and Ted, the curly headed young brother of Marion Hulbert, entered. "Door was open downstairs so I just came right up," said Ted, nonchalantly. "Got a note from sis," and, making a sudden dive into the depths of his trousers pocket, he drew forth a crumpled note, which he tossed to Ashton. Ashton opened it with trembling fingers and read: "Please come to me this evening, I wish to restore to you something of value which you have lost. MARION." He got rid of Ted in short order, and then struggled into evening clothes. "Poor little girl," he thought, comisheringly, as he hastened his preparations, "she's had as hard a time of it as I have had, and now she's given in and sent for me to tell me that she wishes to make up and restore herself to me." So, when he entered the Hulberts' parlor, Ashton sprang forward and clasped her unresisting form in his arms. It was not until a triumphant Ashton was bidding a blushing Marlon good night that that young person remembered to say: "There, I came near forgetting to return your lost property." "I supposed that you had already returned it," Ashton replied, with a meaning smile. "Of course not," Marlon pouted. "I wanted to give you your opal ring." "Where on earth did you get it?" demanded the amazed Ashton. "I took my small niece to the theater and when I reached home I found it caught in the plait of my skirt." Now his opal is Ashton's most treasured piece of jewelry. Most}Wonderful Mon. Night Columbine Dancin ents to every D Grandest Xmas Tr ver; also Mon. The Columbine Danc Cake-walk Admission Mon.

Negroes, you know the necessity of team-work in time of war. Never has, in the history of the United States, organization been so absolutely imperative and recent events in the industrial, mining and commercial world have shown the driving power of effective organization, intelligently directed than at the present time. Many and numerous have the calls been made for the Negroes by our government. Many more will be made before this war is over. Get yourselves ready for the effectiveness of an organization depends absolutely upon the cooperation it receives from the individual. When all Negroes combine and work hand-in-hand, there is nothing that we can not do. We invite the Negroes to assist in the providing of an ambulance for the war by the Negroes of this city. The Colored part of the Woman's Service League will be glad to receive your help.

Our mission at Dearfield is growing each week, and we cannot help but rejoice to know that God is manifesting Himself so firmly and strongly here, through the influence of His servant, Rev. B. F. McCully. Seems that each week he walks closer with God, and on the Sabbath the message he brings to us causes sinners to say within themselves, "I will arise and go to Jesus, I cannot hold out no longer." After the beautiful message, "Look on Me," was delivered last Sabbath, two sinners, Eula Hicks and Kenneth Wheeler, came to Jesus, and one warrior, J. M. Holley, who had strayed from the fold came back. Already during the short time that the pastor has been with us each Sunday a noticeable change has overshadowed the colony and if it continues, no telling what we'll do. On Thanksgiving Day a rally was held in behalf of our future edifice. $18.05 was raised, which gives us near $75 in the treasury. We wish every reader of this article would sympathize with us in our struggle for a "House of Worship," and come to our rescue with donations of any amount. Should there be any donors, please remit to secretary. We did not forget our pastor and wife for on that night at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. D. B. Holley, a social was held in their honor. The whole of Dearfield attended to show their ap- preciated. Rev. and wife shall never forget the occasion as he said in his address; he was glad he was here with us as he did not know such good things were in store for him. Mr. and Mrs. Moore, of Orchard, Colo., worshipped with us last Sabbath. ANNA THOMAS, Secretary. (Send all news to the Denver Star office.

Anyone present at our morning service last Sunday might have well concluded that the weather was in element by contrasting the attendance with that of the Sunday before. There was, however, a "fair" attendance, provided we do not press the adjective too closely. But what was lacking in numbers seemed to have been made up in interest. The pastor gave the second of the series of discussions on "Stewardship." God's Word plainly given is not only always interesting, but helpful. As a consequence, Zion congregation will continue in the spirit to meet its financial obligations. At the beginning of the year the church adopted a budget of current expenses amounting to $3,600 and a benevolent offering of $1,000. The eleven months past indicate that these estimations will be more than met. The church is learning that the high cost of living should not greatly effect the Lord's treasury. On the last Sunday in the year a great canvass committee will visit the membership to secure pledges for the obligations of 1918. Every member is asked to remain at home during the afternoon until the visit from the committee. By the full co-operation of the membership the entire matter can be concluded during that week. The public will remember the beautiful ful service held in the church Sunday evening before Christmas last year. We expect to make the White Gifts Christmas the most beautiful and appropriate service the community has ever seen. If you have never seen a completely fitting celebration of the birthday of the Lord, the opportu- nity will be given you on Sunday evening of the 23rd. It will be instructive, entertaining and devotional, while the spirit of evangelism runs through and thru. We have a young brother, now in heaven, who gave him- self to his Lord in a White Gifts service. We will expect you to be there. COTT METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH, 803 26TH AVE. REV. G. S.

The attendance has been good and the pastor and members are grateful to God for many blessings. At the meeting of our official board this week we decided to hold our revival services beginning Sunday, Jan. 6, 1918. The pastor is to be assisted by an evangelist.

The Women's Home Mission Society accomplished many good things during 1917. The president is a faithful worker. Sis Geo. Anderson, Central, has shown a grand spirit in helping to raise money for state and foreign missions during 1917. The Pastor's Aid Society, B. Y. P. U. and Ushers Club has worked quite well also. Our ladies are very much interested in the Red Gross work. Watch for details later. We have raised more money without entertainments during 1917 than in the history of Central church. Figures will show same. The sooner each respective member becomes educated to do his own duty in the church, the more the church will prosper, for the church ought to be sustained by those that are members.

Byrd, Gaskin, Jahnson and Carey proved them selves men of rare ability in their respective spheres. Mrs.W. Gatewood was the vocalist for the occasion. With much grace and articulation she sweetly sang "Will There Be Any Stars in My Crown" (transposed), accompanied by the orchestra. The chorus work of the choir was very effective. Mrs. Evelyn Cowan in a very soulful manner sustained her part in the anthem, "Hark, a Thrilling Voice Is Sounding." The Misses Cleo Hobson, Vurgle Cole, and Helen Thompson sang with angel-like expressions the semi-chorus, "The Desert Shall Rejoice." The bassos, Messrs C. Norris, J. Woolridge and W. Evans, proved themselves to be vocal assets. Mr.C. Clark was pronounced on the tenor score. Miss J. Rollins read a most able literary selection. The organ, Mr. Spratlin, ably presided at the organ. The Presbyter takes this opportunity to thank all the people for the patronage on the occasion of last Sabbath as well as on similar occasions in the past. Owing to pressing duties that will consume the pastor's time out of the church and state during the coming year, Rev. Thos. Hazell has called to his assistance Mr.W. Gatewood as conductor of the People's Presbyterian church choir after Dec. 31, 1917. The standard of musical efficiency will be sustained as heretofore with marked improvements.

The membership campaign is still on, and while some of the workers show "slacker" inclinations, the majority are working bravely, showing no sign of a let-up. At the first reports Lightner was in the lead, with Bell as a close second. Coleman, however, came in and took second place, and in the number of units actually got ahead of Lightner. At the second report Bell had taken first place, with Coleman second and Lightner third. A new apportionment has been made, which will facilitate the work of canvassers. This system will be followed hereafter. Sawyer, Jackson, Littlejohn, Bondurant, Parks and Bradshaw are likewise in the contest. An effort is being made to secure the gymnasium at the Bath House for basketball practice. The boys are enthusiastic over the idea, and are ready to take up the work. The Rev. J. A. Thomas-Hazell be- 2425 WASHINGTON STREET gan a series of two or three addresses last Sunday afternoon on "Some Important Facts Which Dark Races Should Know." To say that the opening address was interesting and instructive is putting it mildly indeed. The second in the series will be given next Sunday afternoon at four o'clock. On account of the importance of the lectures ladies will be admitted to hear them. It is hoped that a large number will be present to get the information contained in these talks.
